Or unwillingness?
OK - now in Honduras narco-case including Prez JOH & brother Tony, now Geovanny Fuentes Ramirez has a proceeding before Judge Castel - Inner City Press will live tweet, thread below
Or unwillingness?
Defendant's counsel: I understand reading between the lines what your Honor is saying [about corruption in Honduras] and the alleged homicide...
[To him, maybe]
Defense: The evidence should be kept out.
Assistant US Attorney: He was in the presence of CC-4 and Owner-1 when the statements were made.
AUSA: They spurred assistance and allowed CC-4 to conduct monetary negotiations. It shows why CC-4 would have meetings about drug trafficking at Business-1
Judge Castel: Business-1 was allegedly used by the defendant to launder drug money. Was that the case when CC-4 was soliciting campaign contributions?
AUSA: Yes, Your Honor.
[JOH - to have testimony taken?]
Defense lawyer: We didn't know this was going to be part of the trial. We knew there were allegations, but...
AUSA: Corruption and violence, we identified from early in the case as relevant to the case. We made early 3500 production.
Defense: The witness known as Medro, his statements to Mr. Rivera, they are big part of the US' case. It is outrageous. Mr. Rivera made the witness unavailable by murdering him.
Judge Castel: And defendant's participation?
Defense lawyer: This is more extreme that the situation with the political corruption
Judge Castel: There are communications about Lopez Canabria. That murder was covered. So remarking about the death doesn't have much probative value.
[An aside: When shall we expect Narcos Honduras??]
This was not people discussing news reports about a murder. The Commissioner refers to being hounded by prosecutors. The Defendant wanted info about this case.
Assistant US Attorney Gutwillig: "Did it again" is not accurate. The episode with Freddy Najara was different.
Judge Castel: There is not evidence of government inducement so I'm not going to exclude the evidence at this juncture. But I'll keep an open mind.
AUSA: We've identified those statements we intend to use.
Defense lawyer: They cherry pick from my client's lengthy post arrest statement.
Defense: We've seen the new SDNY order that people will have to wear 2 masks or N-95. I'm not sure I can be heard that way.
[Note: they put the lawyers in plexiglass box]
[Inner City Press covered both of them]
"We have constructed and tested a booth with a HEPA filter. You will only wear a mask when at counsel table.
